I agree. If I weren't a nail tech, I'd eat this show up. I love characters like her on other shows. It just makes me nuts that someone so irritating and unlikeable has her own polish line. Yes, that's right, I'm jealous. Can't help it.
I haven't decided whether I'll keep watching it, but I agree that her behaviour around Too Short was fine. It's not like he's Mr. Rogers. Conversely, I had no idea who he was and would have embarassed myself if he came in and I wasn't suitably impressed.
